My current interests lie in the fields of #STS #EconomicSociology #EconomicAnthropology #MedicalAnthropology #MedicalSociology and #SustainabilityStudies
I came here to Mastodon as a way to support the budding academic community here and engage with in meaningful conversation and with other people's work 🗣️

A re-#introduction for new Mastodon users:

As the days go by the future of Twitter seems more and more uncertain. It seems sensible therefore to build a strong global network of sociologists via Mastodon. I think we’ve made a good start! #sociology #socialtheory #politicalsociology #medicalsociology #sportsociology

Lovely to hear that lots of folks from #academia have been migrating over the past few days to become part of #macademia. The #introduction post, including hashtags for key words, will help us find you. I’m keen to build connections with others interested in #QualitativeResearch #HealthSociology #MedicalSociology #HealthServices. I am starting some new work, connected to children and #SocialCare tomorrow, so I am also looking forward to learning lots about this area from wise(r) colleagues.

Being a very involved grandparent promotes the well-being among grandfathers but not among grandmothers where daily caretaking of grandchildren leads to a reduction in wellbeing. This is an interesting finding from a new study by Leimer & van Ewikj utilising data from SHARE.
The study finds that grandchildren overall contributes to a slightly lower quality of life contradictory to the idea that grandparenthood is joyous and a positive life event - the authors interpret this a evidence of role strain. @sociology #medicalsociology @publichealth https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0277953622006980?
My #introduction: I am a medical sociologist at William and Mary, whose research focuses on the intersection of racialization, immigration, and health. My work includes some historical demography (to study early immigrants in the early 1900s), some machine learning (to study MENA Americans when they don't have a box to check), and some cross-national comparison (mostly in Europe).

Hello! An #introduction from me, a qualitative health researcher based in Scotland.
I am an academic philanderer, failing to commit to any one social/ medical science. My interests broadly are: #socialresearch #publichealth #healthservicesresearch #medicalsociology #medsoc
Methods: #qualitative #ethnography #evaluation #complexinterventions
Most of my work has explored #gender #masculinities #inequalities and identities, health and healthcare seeking.
Looking forward to forging new bonds!
